Cole Palmer has committed himself to Chelsea by signing a two-year contract extension which sees him tied to the club until the summer of 2033.
The 22-year-old England forward joined Chelsea from Manchester City on September 1 last year and enjoyed a stellar Premier League season as he contributed to 33 goals, scoring 22 times.
The fresh terms see Palmer extend his previous contract by a further two years, a reward for his breakthrough campaign at Stamford Bridge.
In total, he registered 25 goals and 15 assists in 45 appearances across all competitions.
Palmer made the switch from Manchester City last summer for an initial fee of £40m with £2.5m due in potential add-ons.
Will Palmer be fit for the start of the season?
Palmer is among the England contingent who are behind their club counterparts in their pre-season preparations.
